Presenting a stylish spin on rustic Greek cuisine, off-the-main-drag Brika is a load of fun. The whitewashed interior is enlivened by colourful traditional fabrics. Menu highlights include creamy smoked-eggplant dip, slow-cooked lamb and charred calamari. Definitely leave room for a dessert of loukoumades (Greek doughnuts).

If you're pushed for time, grab an espresso, baklava and a souvlaki wrap from Brika's Filos + Yiros hole-in-the-wall option (open 7.30am to 4pm daily). There's a pleasant park just across the road to sit while you eat.
